Course Descriptions

Physical Demands of the Barber Profession

 

The physical demands of the barber profession require a healthy body and mind. Good health is a basic element of living. Without it, one cannot work efficiently or enjoy a pleasurable life. As a barber lives by example so you can increase your value to yourself, your employer, and the community. You should practice stress management through relaxation, rest, and exercise and avoid substances that can negatively affect your good health such as cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs. Being a barber demands standing on your feet for long periods of time and working long hours. Persons who cannot stand for long periods of time could choose a career that requires less standing. Therefore, good health, personal hygiene, and good posture are important demands in the barbering field.
Using your hands is to handle and control the combs, scissors, and clippers.

It is important for barbers to:


Hold the arm and hand steady in one position
Use fingers or hands to grasp and move small objects
Understand the speech of another person.
Speak clearly so listeners can understand.
